“Coaching on live challenges allows direct challenge and support, and the chance to follow up to explore the impact of their changes in behaviour and approach.” It's great to see the Financial Times highlighting the benefits of executive coaching for MBAs both during their studies and beyond, featuring, amongst others, me! (*cue happy dance*) Coaching on hypothetical situations is a waste of time and I won't do it. They tend to be based more on our own worries and fears, and so it's far too easy to end up going round in circles and getting nowhere. I coach on what's 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 happening. We use real life examples to explore your behaviours and responses and the impact of those. And it's not only about reflecting on past situations, we can also plan for, then review, meetings or situations we know are approaching. It's one of the reasons coaching the Executive MBA students from Cambridge Judge Business School is so rewarding, because they are putting the lessons from their MBA and the new awareness from their coaching into practice in their ongoing working life. PS Coaching isn't just for MBA students... If you're ready to explore what coaching could do to accellerate your career, or support you as you face challenging times, let's chat. 📸 Leigh Farmer

Train with an MCC and author of Mentor Coaching: A Practical Guide on an ICF-accredited programme to become a (more) masterful mentor coach. Starting 1st October. "I hoped the Coach Mentoring programme would bring me clarity, confidence, direction, and renewed enthusiasm for coaching (not a lot then really). It didn’t disappoint.   Clare’s teaching is simple, yet thorough and considered, and I loved the mix of experiential practice, education, and shared examples". "Many people promise to give step-by-step guidance but still leave you wondering what to do next. Clare’s Coach Mentoring offering is different.   At the end of the workshops, I knew what to do". *Are you driven to professionalise the coaching industry? *Are you motivated to share what you have learned with other coaches about what makes great coaching? *Do you see a need for coaches around you to sharpen their edge? *Perhaps you relish the idea of learning more yourself by mentor coaching others? *Or maybe you are looking to develop your business and add an additional revenue stream? Registrations close on 30th August. Register now. This is the last programme I will be running, as I move my focus to other coaching-related programmes. Don't miss out on this chance to train with me. https://lnkd.in/eTPxJerx

One crucial element of the #coachingapproach is the Expertise of Not Knowing. It is a concept highlighted by Buchinger (1998) that states that the #coach should not be seduced by the expectation of knowing the solution or working on quick solutions. Instead, they should consider #uncertainty as an integral part of the solution process. This approach can serve as a model for the client, relieving them of the need to know everything and helping them navigate complex situations without the pressure of having all the answers, fostering a more open and explorative problem-solving environment.

“Leadership is not the practice of a model or the promotion of an idea. It is a kind of love declared with courage and shown with care.” Gianpiero Petriglieri, a psychiatrist by training, a professor at INSEAD, describes what is the most prevalent style of #leadership today – the Dominant model. Petriglieri says this is the most #popular because it simplifies leadership, making it look easy and accessible. While people talk and write about different styles of leading, they all boil down to this #dominant one. This kind of leadership is eponymous – it is, ultimately, about dominance. To be a leader under this umbrella style that covers various versions of leadership, you have to make it to the top of the hierarchy or be at the centre of attention of a circle and get others to do what you want them to do. There is, evidently, an issue with this style: every time this popular model is used, “we end up making things worse … hiring and grooming selfish #leaders or becoming one ourselves.” This leads to people becoming “unhappy with their bosses.” Petriglieri then explains what good leadership looks like by asking us to respond to the question “Have you experienced #goodleadership?” Leadership is a kind of #love, Petriglieri asserts, and his explanation of how this is so must be heard and pondered to be understood. Some gems are as follows: · Leadership creates #relationships where one feels “#committed and not captive”. · “Passion can drive us and make us obsessive sometimes, but eventually fades.” #Care makes us “#generous and is something that we can cultivate.” · If you want to be a leader, stop asking ‘How do I move up?” “How do I get others to do what I want? … That is seduction that might charm people at first but will bring mistrust in the long run. Ask yourself, instead, “what do I care about? Whose future do I care for?” · Show that care in a “complete, #credible, and #consistent way”. · “Leadership is not the practice of a model or the promotion of an idea. It is a kind of love declared with #courage and shown with care.” https://lnkd.in/gAUdWUZE #leadershipmatters #greatleaders #leadbyexample

Being a Body-Oriented Coaching trainer and being recognised by the ICF isn't just something we are immensely proud of... it is in fact whispers of the changing winds. One day we won't need to say 'somatic coaching' because all coaching will be somatic, because all of us are integrated neuro-psycho-biological wholes, and you can't coach the whole of a person if you only focus on what's above the neck... Here's to the International Coaching Federation welcoming the field of somatics into the arena. Watch this space... #coaching #somatics #somaticcoaching

More on the working alliance in coaching - thank you Annabe Tredoux for spotting this and sending it my way 🙏 Thank you to the researchers for this contribution to add to this hotly contested topic 🙏 My stand out "Coach and coachee-rated working alliance related to coaching satisfaction but not goal attainment." Interested to read what your stand outs are - please post in the comments A few weeks about I wrote a post about the idea of fit, chemistry sessions and what instead? The common project perhaps - https://lnkd.in/dycNnYZV Solms, L., van Vianen, A.E.M., Nevicka, B., Koen, J., de Hoog, M., & de Pagter, A.P.J. (2024). It's a match! The role of coach-coachee fit for working alliance and effectiveness of coaching. Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology, Early View, , 1-25. https://lnkd.in/duy5arVy. [Open Access]. Abstract The coaching literature emphasizes the role of the coach–coachee working alliance in obtaining positive coaching outcomes and proposes that a good match between coach and coachee promotes this working alliance. However, existing coaching research has some methodological short-comings that limit drawing robust conclusions about the importance of coach–coachee fit and working alliance for coaching effectiveness. In this study, we investigate coach–coachee fit as an antecedent of the working alliance and its effects on coaching outcomes. Using a three-wave study design, 184 coachees participating in a workplace coaching program in healthcare answered online surveys before, halfway-through, and approximately one month after coaching. We measured both coachee-rated and coach-rated working alliance and, based on person-environment fit theories, we included three measures of coach–coachee fit, that is similarity-fit, general needs-supplies fit, and idiosyncratic needs-supplies fit. Multilevel path modelling revealed that only idiosyncratic needs-supplies fit, where the coach fulfils a coachee's unique needs, related positively to coaching satisfaction through coachee-rated working alliance and predicted improved goal attainment. Coachees’ similarity-fit related positively to their assessment of the working alliance but, unexpectedly, predicted lower coaching satisfaction .Coach and coachee-rated working alliance related to coaching satisfaction but not goal attainment. These findings make a unique contribution to current debates in the coaching and person-environment fit literatures and advance our understanding of the role of coach–coachee fit and working alliance for affective and behavioural coaching outcomes. #professionalcoaching #research #chemistrysessions
